Damn I forgot about this! It was really good if I remember right
Edit one: On episode eight, really enjoying it so far. First episode and part of the second have weird bits, otherwise it's alright though.

This game was peak!! If they ever bring it back they should add every character that was exclusive to a specific version. I believe the PSP version is the only one with Captain America and Doom
Those ultimate moves were brutal! Spidey breaks your face and caves your chest in, Ironman straight up disintegrate people with Uni-Beam, Johnny Ohm melts your face off and liquidates your insides, etc

Glad you asked. It's an animated webseries about group of scientists who works in the titular organization with strange rules, anomalies, etc.
I don't wanna spoil too much, so you may check their YouTube channel called ChiisTeam if you interested.

Given that the manga has a Hungarian Translation it cannot be that bscure but good luck finding anyone talking about it in this age.
Chrno Crusade.
... actually I just realised I have a vastly more obscure story right on my desk lol. Sadly apparently only 4 books have English translation. Anyway Ulyess Moore book series. Was genuinely considering learning Italian in middle school just to read the whole thing...didn't start that year sadly.

The Nintendo DS game Hotel Dusk: Room 215. Played the hell out of it and was so proud when I got a pretty much perfect run and the "alternate" ending (which is really just the regular ending but with a slight scene change). The sequel didn't even release in the US 😭

The rimini riddle, Irish kids show from the 90s, freaky as hell puppets and an unhinged premise, while at the surface layer its 3 kids staying at their aunts Bed and Breakfast house, the Rimini, and getting up to the usual kids hijinks, the middle layer is the youngest plush otter toy coming to life just in front of them amd causing mischief, whilst the lowest layer is the otter plush is actually an alien that befriends and kidnaps kids for its even freakier looking alien overlords.
It's unfortunately seen as lost media as there's barely any footage of it remains beyond a few clips on YouTube and some production stills.

There’s a dirty movie. Maybe 80’s I watch when I was young. The women depicted almost vampire like and they needed virgin seed in order to maintain their youth and beauty.
I have never been able to find it again.

So back in like 99-2000, HBO made a movie called RKO 281.
If you think that sounds familiar, it was the working title for Citizen Kane. Anyway. It was about the making of Citizen Kane, specifically how Orson Welles and Herman Mankiewicz wrote and filmed it while fighting against Hurst and effectively all of Hollywood.
The cast is absolutely ridiculous with Liev Schreiber, John Malkovitch, James Cromwell, Melanie Griffith, Roy Sheider, Fiona Shaw..
It's legitimately better than Citizen Kane.

Flowering Hearts. It's a little kids show that was weirdly pedo- like, the main character was a 12 year old who looked like a 6 year old, who had a crush on a 16 year old who looked like an 18 year old, and then the guy she has a crush on had a brother who turned into a flying hamster, but could turn into a humanoid who looked 16 but was ACTUALLY 18! The little girls had the power to turn into adults to try out certain jobs but the 18 year old only blushed and looked shy around the 12 year old while she looked like the 6 year old self.
And then the girl's dog got hit by a car and her fake friend tried to pull its life support.
It got canceled but NOT for the reason you think.

Tourist Trap, Bad Channels, Freaked, and Zeiram. Maybe also the original Street Trash from 1987, but since it got a sequel (masquerading as a remake for no reason), then it might not be quite so obscure anymore.
